Thanks prick.

Hey my dog is getting old and like the rest of us losing his hair and turning gray.

I got the bumper all welded up, now I just need to grind the welds smooth. I'm working on it in my free time since I'm behind with dirt work.

Cool... btw if you knew how to weld, they wouldnt need ground off.. personally I like seeing the weld. But it wont look smooth and fluent with them left on either..

Oh kiss my a$$.

I did think about leaving the welds bare and just painting it but figured that myself and others can appreciate the look of clean crisp welds others would think it looked unfinished. And since I wouldn't feel like explaining myself all the time said screw it.

Gee thats a hard explanation..... dude says, why did you leave the welds on? Brian says cuz I like seeing them... end of discussion.... lazy bastard... but yeah im sure repeating it every single day would get old.

And then to leave them that way and have a picky sumbitch like yourself critic them, point out every little flaw or twitch I made, and try to explain to me proper welding technique that I don't care to hear about because I'm not a certified professional rod burner and would likely tell them or you to just piss off.... That's why I chose to grind them smooth so I don't have to hear it.

Looks great. Any kind of flex in the truck will make the tires contact the bed tho wont it? Or load on it, but I'm assuming your running air bags. The tire clearance on the bed just seems crazy tight.

looks great, i wonder if it would save your paint some and provide more 360* view if you moved your lightbar to the headache rack?

The headache rack sits perfectly flush with the top of the cab. I installed the bed lower than recommended but as low as I possibly could. I hate when a headache rack sits higher than the cab. The light is also to wide to sit on the rack itself.
